People don't masturbate in public and vandalize cars and speak nonsense from stress. People masturbate in public, vandalize cars, and speak nonsense because of PCP. I'm surprised so many redditors don't even consider the fact that he might have been on drugs or understand that this fits the PCP bill perfectly. This is a textbook case of what PCP does to you. Very typical behavior.

The masturbating has not been confirmed. A witness said "he was touching himself." He was not arrested but sectioned. He is probably on a 72 hour hold at Mercy. And he was not a typical PCP user. He was not violent to others and was taken into custody without incident.

He probably was masturbating, though. Let's assume he wasn't, though, and he wasn't violent to others. He was still naked in public, was violent to automobiles, screaming incomprehensibly, and pounding the pavement with his fists. That is still textbook PCP. It makes you act as bizarre as fuck.

He's a colossal hat-ass who gave only a small fraction of the cash to the actual cause, kept the rest for movie making and administration, and "administration" is apparently code for buying shitloads of methamphetamine so you get high and do a naked concrete-stomp dance in the middle of San Diego.

In related news, everyone should go to Charity Navigator to find out who to donate to where your cash will really help someone.

And yes, mentally ill people who need help get "lol ur drugs" when they shouldn't.

I have a hard time believing that someone who can orchestrate a whole huge video project and run an organization with the goal of getting lots of attention....would suddenly snap for getting lots and lots of attention. Not without warning signs or something. Maybe there were, I don't know him, but simplest explanation is "newly famous guy with a lot of money partied too hard."

It says in the video that Invisible Children claims he was "suffering from exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition" but that's just nothing but lies. He would not be moving like that or acting crazy like that if that was the case. There had to have been a previous unrecognized mental illness or drugs but the way they seem to be trying to cover it up leads me to believe it is the effect of drugs. Either way, the money donated should not have been given to someone who is clearly unstable.

As a nurse who has dealt with a lot of mental health patients it appears to be more of a manic phase than drugs. He may be bi-polar which is very manageable with meds. Many highly successful people are controlled bi-polar.

Honestly, the best way to get college aged women to sleep with you is lying. The best times to do so are when you are first entering college and everyone is still figuring out social life, and then the end of college when most girls are looking to pair up more seriously.

That's pretty cynical, but that's the best way to do it. Obviously you need the initial attraction, but lying really helps after that.

Me either! the gods of comedy has graced us with such a bountiful harvest very early this year, the sacrifices of Jobs and Kim last year must've been quite pleasing to Sol. I rest easy tonight knowing Stewart's writers are figuratively pissing themselves, knee deep in sweet satiric content.

Reminds me of the "you fuck one goat" joke. Kinda sad actually. This guy probably at least tried to fix something in the world, rather than the dickface who made this image. It sounds like he actually lost his mind, which is kinda fucked up.

Funny-- stress is exactly the trigger that most often causes breakdowns in people with mental illnesses that otherwise go unnoticed to most people. All you have to do is forget your meds for a couple of days and BLAM.

Edit: Just to be clear, I am on medication myself. I haven't run around naked in public, but stress and a lack of meds WILL fuck you up. In my case. I just wind up in the middle of a hobby I never knew I had, and only discover once the parcels I ordered during an unstable phase start arriving. On the up side, I now have several tanks of rare fish and invertebrates.

Or he might be high. Better not argue with me about it, though, because you don't know me at all. For all you know, I'm mentally ill, and you'd be an asshole if you got in a fight with a mentally ill person.

I live in a different time zone where it is already Saturday so I woke up late and saw none of this drama. As a person of color (not african) and a devoted reddiot I have to say this is a fucking shame. How deeply saddening. All of us righteous people on the internet have something to do with this man's meltdown. . He did what he set out to do, now even an everyday idiot knows who Joseph Kony is. Which in itself might not be a great thing but still better than ignorance. And we paid him back with suspicion, blame games and harsh criticisms. "Oh why does the movie about africa have a white man talking" - because it is the story of one man's personal journey of realisation. A man just like you and you are white. He is talking to you with his kid on his side because you understand those kind of visuals. " There is no Joseph Kony in the Uganda anymore, this is a rip off" - so what if there is no kony in Uganda? I mean what the fucking fuck sort of BS argument is this. Kony is still alive, people/children are still in danger aren't they?

"Oh they kept all the millions for themselves. Thieves!" - I don't see you complaining when you pay for expensive video games and apple products. But change must still be free of cost and those trying to bring it about should be pious monks who die in penury.

Why must we always try to down grade, degrade and crush the one who had the balls to stand up in a crowd. Try to make a difference. What have we personally done that counts as anything worthwhile (don't fucking say SOPA - you only did it for yourself and your internet, people in a third world country do and will not give a fuck about it)

I don't know maybe I am over reacting and completely wrong. But it is something to think about. I will now go for a run while you downvote this comment. Goodbye Reddit. Stop being an idiot for one second.
